Artist's Story (excerpt): Star bin fall down from top and made it. That's what happened, a big star fell and made Kandimalal [the crater]. We call that star kiki in our language. There was a Rainbow Serpent traveling inside the ground and came out from the crater. That snake was traveling under ground. He came out right in the center of the crater. That's where the water comes from in the middle of the crater. It comes from Sturt Creek. Sometimes, you can see that snake. In the wet season you can see him. He has eyes like Chinese people. He appears like a big light in the middle of the water. That rainbow - big snake, water snake. The name of the snake is Kalpurtu. |
